Maintenance

Even the most sustainably built trail will benefit from proper maintenance.

With environmental impact, population growth, the boom in the outdoor recreation industry, and the innate mental and physical health benefits we all receive from venturing into nature, trail maintenance is a requirement in sustainable trail construction.

Sustainable, safe trails, are fun to use.

Over time trails are subject to the loss of soil due to water, wind, and compaction, to name just a few. Over time this can cause a trail to become “dished out”, or concave. This leads your user to step to the side of the trail, in turn, widening the trail, or burning in new pathways altogether. Once eroded, user satisfaction will, inevitably, go down.

In some instances, this is a severe detriment to the local wildlife, especially invertebrates and water dwelling species. As trails erode, sediment will deposit in a waterway, leading to loss of life for creatures that are important to the local ecosystem.

User safety and risk management should also be a concern, with routine inspections occurring at regular intervals. Even the most adventurous of outdoor enthusiasts like to go home safely.

In some instances, proper trail maintenance will require reclamation, closure, or obliteration.
